We’re joining the American Council of Learned Societies in amplifying the message that we need more scholars.

At JSTOR, we work with librarians, educators, and researchers who rely on humanities scholarship to support teaching and learning. Every day, we see how this scholarship connects people to the past and helps them engage more deeply with the world.

We’re participating in this campaign to highlight the ongoing importance of humanities research and to support the people who create and use it.
